Description: TITLE OF THE INVENTION CYCLOHEXAPEPTIDYL AMINE COMPOUNDS The present invention is directed to certain cyclohexapeptidyl amine compounds and to a process for their preparation. The cyclohexapeptidyl amine compounds of the present invention, Compound X (SEQ ID NOS 1-7, 29) have one amine group directly on the ring and the second amine group as a substituent on the ether group, and may be represented by the formula (X) or its acid addition salt In the foregoing and succeeding formulas, R j is H or OH R 2 is H or OH R 3 is QC n H 2n NR v R VI , QC n H 2n NR v R VI R vπ+ Y-, or Q(CH 2 )ι.3CR vm R IX NHR x R 4 is H or OH R 5 is H, OH or CH 3 R 6 is H or CH 3 R 1 is wherein R a is Ci-Clθ alkyl; or (CH2)q NRbRC wherein R b and R c are independently H, Cl-Cio alkyl or R D and R c taken together are wherein Rd is C1-C16 alkyl, phenyl or benzyl R π is H, C1-C4 alkyl or benzyl, R m is H, C1-C4 alkyl or benzyl R IV is R π and R πι taken together as -(CH2)4- or -(CH2)5- R v is H, C1-C4 alkyl or benzyl R VI is H, C1-C4 alkyl or benzyl or R v and R VI together is -(CH 2 ) 4 - or -(CH 2 )5- RVH is H or Cj^ alkyl R vm is H, (CH 2 ) m H, (CH 2 ) m OH, (CH 2 ) m NH 2 or COX wherein X is NH 2 ,OH or 0(CH 2 ) m H R κ is H, (CH 2 ) m H, or together with R v is =0 (carbonyl); R x is H (except when R vm and R IX are H), C(=NH)NH 2 , C(=NH)(CH 2 ) 0 . 3 H, CO(CH 2 ) 0 . 3 H, CO(CH 2 ) m NH 2 , (CH 2 ) 2 _ 4 OH or (CH 2 ) 2 . 4 NH 2 . Q is O or S Y is an anion of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt each m is independently an integer from 1 to 3, inclusive, and n is an integer from 2 to 4, inclusive; p is an integer from 1 to 2, inclusive and q is an integer from 2 to 4, inclusive. Hereinafter, when the expression "amine compound" or "Compound X" is employed, it is intended to embrace the amine of formula (X), its acid addition salt or salts. It is to be noted that in Compound X, R 3 may be either an amino alkyl ether or a quaternary ammonium alkyl ether. Thus, the amine compound may be an uncharged compound having two amino groups or it may be a mono ammonium compound. When the "amine compound" is an amine, as above defined (Compound X) and R 3 is QC n H 2n NR^R^ or Q(CH )i. 3 CR In R IX NHR x , the ultimate compound is uncharged and may be referred to generically as Compound X-a. Compound X-a (Seq. ID No. 1-7, 29) may be represented by the following formula: When in the "amine compound" R is QC n H 2n NR v R VI R VII+ Y", the charged portion of the molecule will reside in the amino ether portion and the compound may be referred to as Compound X-b (Seq. ID No. 1-7, 29). Compound X-b may be represented by the following formula: Where the expression "alkyl", "alkenyl" or "alkoxy" is employed, it is intended to include branched as well as straight chain radicals. It is also intended to include an alkyl chain having a cycloalkyl substituent. Where the expression "ether" is employed, it is intended to include thioethers as will be evident from the context. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts suitable as acid addition salts as well as salts providing the anion of the quaternary salt are those from acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, phosphoric, sulfuric, maleic, citric, acetic, tartaric, succinic, oxalic, malic, glutamic and the like, and include other acids related to the pharmaceutically acceptable salts listed in Journal of Pharmaceutical Science, 66, 2 (1977). Representative nuclei for Compound X and the sequence IDs for these compounds may be seen in the following table. Since the peptide nuclei would be the same irrespective of substituents R , R", RIH, or R Ϊ V and since the sequence identification number is assigned for the nuclear variations, the amines and ammonium salts have the same sequence ID's. Also, since the nucleus amino acid would be the same irrespective of the particular amino alkyl ether, i.e., irrespective of R R I or RVH, R~ is considered to be the same for purposes of sequence identification and is not on the table. Further, since the amino acid is not varied irrespective of the change in the lipophilic side chain, separate sequence numbers are not assigned merely on the basis of a different side chain. "Lipophilic side chain" as herein employed refers to R 1 . AMINE COMPOUND Rj R 2 R 4 R 5 R 6 SEQ. ID N CLEI When the compounds are free amines, they are soluble in lower alcohols and polar aprotic solvents such as dimethylformamide (DMF) and pyridine. They are insoluble in solvents such as ether and acetonitrile. When the compounds are quaternary ammonium salts or protonated amines, they are soluble in water and polar solvents. The compounds of the present invention are useful as an antibiotic, especially as an antifungal agent or as an antiprotozoal agent. As antifungal agents they are useful for the control of both filamentous fungi and yeasts. They are especially adaptable to be employed for the treatment of mycotic infections in mammals, especially those caused by Candida species such as C. albicans. C tropicalis and C. pseudotropicalis. and Aspergillus species such as A * fumigatus. A. flavus and ______ niger. They are also useful for the treatment and/or prevention of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia to which immune compromised patients are especially susceptible as hereinafter described. The previously noted solubility properties are advantageous for utilization in therapeutic applications, especially in injectible compositions. The compounds of the present invention may be obtained from derivatives of natural products through a sequence of reactions seen in the accompanying flow diagram. The starting material represented by formula (E), which is generally a side chain derivative of a natural product and which may be obtained as hereinafter described, is first subjected to dehydration (Step A) to produce a nitrile of formula (F) which is then reduced (Step B) to an amine G (R^, RHI are H). which if a substituted amine is desired, may be alkylated by reductive alkylation with an appropriate aldehyde and a reducing agent such as sodium cyanoborohydride to obtain Compound G (R^ and REI are alkyl or benzyl). When Compound G has a nuclear configuration which is different from that obtained from a natural product, it may be obtained by reduction of an OH. Compound G is representative novel compound which is claimed in concurrently filed copending application in the name of James M. Balkovec, Milton L. Hammond and Robert A. Zambias (Attorney Docket No. 18978). Compound G may be converted to the aminoalkyl ether by adding 1 to 10 equivalents of strong organic or mineral acid such as camphorsulfonic acid or hydrochloric acid to a solution of cyclohexapeptidyl propanolamine (Compound G) and 20 to 200 equivalents of the appropriate amino alcohol or aminothiol in the form of an acid addition salt, such as the hydrochloride or hydrobromide, in an appropriate solvent such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or dimethylformamide (DMF) and the mixture stirred at room temperature for one to seven days. The reaction is monitored by HPLC and when determined to be complete, the reaction mixture is diluted with 5 to 50 volumes of water and the entire mixture applied to reverse phase chromatography column. "LICHROPREP" C-18 (E. Merck) column is representative of an appropriate column. The column is then eluted with a weakly eluting solvent such as 5 percent acetonitrile in water (containing 0.1 percent trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) or acetic acid) to remove excess amino-alcohol or aminothiol, then with a stronger eluting solvent such as 10 to 50 percent acetonitrile to elute the product. Fractions containing the desired amine compound may be combined and concentrated to isolate the acid addition salt, Compound X-a, according to Step D. Compound G may be converted to Compound X-b in a similar manner by adding 1 -10 equivalents of a strong organic or mineral acid to a stirred solution of cyclohexapeptidyl propanolamine and 20 to 200 equivalents of the appropriate alkylammonium alcohol or thiol in an appropriate solvent such as DMSO or DMF, and the mixture stirred at room temperature for one to seven days until substantial completion of the reaction as can be determined by HPLC. The reaction mixture is then diluted with 5 to 50 volumes of water and the entire mixture applied to a reverse phase chromatography column. The column then may be eluted with a weakly eluting solvent such as 5 percent acetonitrile to remove excess amino alcohol or thiol and then with 10 to 50 percent acetonitrile to elute the product X-b. As can be seen from the foregoing flow diagram, the amino acids in the nucleus remain the same except at the hydroxyglutamine. The aminoalkyl ethers are derivatives which do not change the nature of the amino acids. The sequence identification of the amines or ammonium compounds (at the original hydroxyglutamine) from which the aminoalkyl ethers or thioethers are made would be the same since the amine and hydroxy group of the amino acid remain unchanged. The sequence identification of the starting material and nitrile intermediate are given below. The sequence identification of the starting materials for the dehydration step are: The sequence identification of the nitriles are: The sequence identification of the propanolamines are: PROPANOLAMINE COMPOUND Rj R 2 R 4 R 5 R 6 Seq. ID The first step in the preparation of Compound X (Seq. ID Nos. 1-7, 29) is the dehydration of the carboxamide group of Compound E to the nitrile of Compound F. The reaction is preferably carried out under nitrogen with cyanuric chloride in a solvent in the presence or absence of molecular sieves. Suitable reagents which may be employed in place of cyanuric chloride are anhydrides such as acetic anhydride, trifluoroacetic anhydride and phosphorus pentoxide; acid chlorides such as oxalyl chloride, phosphorus oxychloride, thionyl chloride, p- toluenesulfonyl chloride and chlorosulfonyl isocyanate; phosphonium reagents such as phosphorus pentachloride, triphenylphosphine/carbon tetrachloride, triphenylphosphonium ditriflate and triphenylphos- phonium dichloride; carbodiimides such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide; other dehydrating agents such as aluminum chloride, titanium tetrachloride, ethyl(carboxysulfamoyl)triethylammonium hydroxide inner salt. Suitable solvents include dimethylformamide or weakly basic solvents such as pyridine, collidine and the like. Molecular sieves may be in the size range 3A to 5A. The relative amounts of Compound E (Seq. ID Nos. 8-14) and reagents vary, but in general the dehydrating agent is used in excess. From about 1.5 to 15 equivalents of the dehydrating agent are employed. When employed the molecular sieves are used in amounts of at least tenfold by weight. In carrying out the reaction, a suspension of molecular sieves in a rigorously dried solvent is first prepared, and while stirring under an atmosphere of nitrogen, there is added, cyanuric chloride or other dehydrating agent and thoroughly mixed. To the resulting mixture while stirring under an atmosphere of nitrogen is added the starting material, Compound E and the stirring continued for about 12 to 24 hours or until HPLC analysis of the reaction mixture indicates substantial completion of the reaction with the formation of the nitrile. When the HPLC analysis shows substantial completion of the reaction, the sieves are removed by filtration, preferably on a sintered glass funnel, and the filtrate concentrated and purified by preparative HPLC. The mobile phase used in the purification are varying ratios of a water/acetonitrile composition and an acetonitrile/water composition. These compositions are referred to as A and B. Composition A is 95/5 water/acetonitrile containing 0.1 % trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) or acetic acid. Composition B is 95/5 acetonitrile/water containing 0.1 % TFA or acetic acid. The exact mobile phase used for HPLC assays and the mobile phase used in preparative HPLCs may differ not only from each other but also from compound to compound, but can be determined by the skilled artisan without difficulty. In carrying out the reaction in the absence of sieves, solid cyanuric chloride is added in a single portion to a solution of Compound E in an aprotic solvent and stirred rapidly for a short time and the reaction mixture then quenched by adding aqueous sodium acetate directly to the reaction mixture. The volatiles are then removed in vacuo to obtain a solid residue which may be purified as above described. The reduction of the nitrile to the amine may be carried out employing either chemical or catalytic reduction. Sodium borohydride with cobaltous chloride in alcoholic solvent has been found to be particularly useful. When this combination of reagents is used, from about 5 to 50 molar equivalent of sodium borohydride and from 2 to 10 molar equivalents of cobaltous chloride are used for each molar amount of the nitrile. Other hydride reducing agents such as sodium cyanoborohydride, aluminum hydride, diborane, diisobutyl aluminum hydride and the like also may be used. Frequently these reducing agents are used in combination with a Lewis acid such as cobaltous chloride or aluminum chloride as in the present combination of sodium borohydride and cobaltous chloride. Catalytic hydrogenation also may be carried out over a variety of catalysts including palladium on carbon, platinum oxide, or rhodium on alumina. Typical solvents depending on the reagent include alcohols, especially methanol and ethanol, dimethylformamide, pyridine, tetrahydrofuran or other ethers. When the reduction of the nitrile to the amine is carried out using the preferred chemical procedure, the reaction may be carried out by adding the chemical reducing agent to the nitrile in an alcoholic solution under an atmosphere of nitrogen, and stirring until HPLC analysis using detection by ultraviolet absorption at 210 nm shows substantial completion of the reaction. When sodium borohydride is used in combination with cobaltous chloride, cobaltous chloride is added while stirring to a solution in methanol, or other solvent, of the nitrile, prepared as above described, at ambient temperature, followed by portionwise addition of the sodium borohydride which is accompanied by gas evolution. Stirring is continued for from 12 to 24 hours. The mixture may be quenched with acetic or hydrochloric acid at this time. Then the mixture is diluted with a highly aqueous mobile phase, 70/30 to 50/50 A:B, may be acidified with acetic acid or hydrochloric acid, filtered and purified by chromatography. The eluate fractions are lyophilized to obtain the amine as an acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid or hydrochloric acid addition salt. The N-alkylated or benzylated compounds may be prepared using any suitable known procedure for preparing secondary or tertiary amines. The N-benzyl compound is best prepared by first preparing a Schiff base with benzaldehyde and thereafter reducing with conventional reducing agents such as those previously noted in connection with the reduction of the nitrile although milder reducing agents may be employed. When the desired alkyl group on the nitrogen is methyl, the carbon may be introduced by formylating, followed by reduction of the hydroxymethyl group with sodium cyanoborohydride or other reducing agent. When the desired alkyl group on the nitrogen is a higher alkyl, a preferred procedure is a reductive alkylation of an N-benzyl derivative with an aldehyde and a reducing agent such as sodium cyanoboro¬ hydride, and purifying the product with reverse phase chromatography to obtain a benzyl and a higher alkyl substituted tertiary amine. The benzyl group may be removed by hydrogenation using palladium on carbon or other suitable catalyst. When the alkyl groups are the same, the same general procedure is preferably employed. Although alkyl halide or sulfate may be employed, these are best for quaternary salts. When all substituents on the nitrogen are the same, the starting amine may be the primary amine. For mixed amines, it is preferable to enter the specific groups first since alkylation using an alkylating agent is more difficult to control. To prepare the aminoalkyl ethers or ammoniumalkyl ethers, camphorsulfonic acid is added to the solution containing cyclohexapeptidyl propanolamine compound (Compound G), the appropriate ammonium- or amino-alkanol or ammonium- or amino- alkylthiol hydrochloride salt or N-carbobenzyloxy (CBZ) protected aminoalkanol or aminoalkylthiol and camphorsulfonic acid or hydrogen chloride are mixed together and the mixture allowed to stir at room temperature for one to seven days. The progress of the reaction is conveniently monitored by HPLC using acetonitrile/water as the eluting agent. After the reaction is substantially complete, the reaction mixture is diluted with water and the resulting solution applied to a reverse phase flash silica gel column and eluted with an appropriate mixture of acetonitrile and water to obtain the desired amine compound, or the CBZ protected amine compound. In the case of the latter, the protective CBZ group is removed by hydrogeno lysis. A large excess of the ammonium- or amino-alkanol or ammonium or amino-alkylthiol is employed, preferably of the order of one-hundred molar equivalents. The amount of camphorsulfonic acid or hydrogen chloride is about two moles for every mole of the cyclohexapeptidyl propanolamine. The reaction medium is a suitable aprotic solvent such as dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) or dimethylformamide (DMF) or dioxane, or combinations thereof. For monitoring the progress of the reaction, an analytical "ZORBAX" (DuPont) column with 10 to 50 percent aqueous acetonitrile containing 0.1 percent trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) or acetic acid is suitable. For preparative purification, a reverse phase column such as "LICHROPREP" C18 of particle size 40-63 microns with 5-15 percent aqueous acetonitrile to remove solvent and 10 to 50 percent acetonitrile (containing 0.1 % TFA or acetic acid) to elute the product is useful. The compounds of the present invention are active against many fungi and particularly against Candida. Aspergillus and Crvptococcus species. The antifungal properties may be illustrated with the minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) determination against certain Candida and Crvptococcus organisms in a microbroth dilution assay carried out in a Yeast Nitrogen Base (Difco) medium with 1 percent dextrose (YNBD). In a representative assay, Compound Xa is solubilized in 100 percent dimethyl sulf oxide (DMSO) at an initial concentration of 5 mg/L. Once dissolved, the drug stock is brought to a concentration of 512 mg/L by dilution in water such that the final DMSO concentration is about 10 percent. The solution is then dispensed via a multichannel pipetter into the first column of a 96-well plate (each well containing 0.075 ml of YNBD), resulting in a drug concentration of 256 mg/L. Compounds in the first column are diluted 2-fold across the rows yielding final drug concentrations ranging from 256 mg/L to 0.12 mg/L. Four-hour broth cultures of organisms to be tested are adjusted using a spectrophotometer at 600 nm to equal a 0.5 McFarland Standard. This suspension is diluted 1 :100 in YNBD to yield a cell concentration of 1-5 x 10^ colony forming units (CFU)/ml. Aliquots of the suspension (0.075 ml) are inoculated into each well of the microtiter plate resulting in a final cell inoculum of 5-25 x 10- . CFU/ml and final drug concentrations ranging from 128 mg/L to 0.06 mg/L. Each assay includes one row for drug-free control wells and one row for cell-free control wells. After 24 hours of incubation, the microtiter plates are shaken gently on a shaker to resuspend the cells. The MIC-2000 inoculator is used to transfer a 1.5 microliter sample from each well of the 96-well microtiter plate to a single reservoir inoculum plate containing Sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA). The inoculated SDA plates are incubated for 24 hours at 35°C. The in vivo effectiveness of the compounds against fungi may be demonstrated with Compound X-a. Growth from an overnight SDA culture of Candida albicans MY 1055 is suspended in sterile saline and the cell concentration determined by hemacytometer count and the cell suspension adjusted to 3.75 x 10^ cells/ml. Then 0.2 milliliter of this suspension is administered I.V. in the tail vein of mice so that the final inoculum was 7.5 x 10^ cells/mouse. The assay then is carried out by administering aqueous solutions of Compound X-a at various concentrations intraperitoneally (I.P.), twice daily (b.i.d.) for four consecutive days to 18 to 20 gram female DBA/2 mice, which previously has been infected with Candida albicans in the manner described above. Distilled water is administered I.P. to albicans challenged mice as controls. After seven days, the mice are sacrificed by carbon dioxide gas, paired kidneys are removed aseptically and placed in sterile polyethylene bags containing 5 milliliters of sterile saline. The kidneys are homogenized in the bags, serially diluted in sterile saline and aliquots spread on the surface of SDA plates. The plates are incubated at 35°C for 48 hours and yeast colonies are enumerated for determination of colony forming units (CFU) per gram of kidneys. The compounds of the present invention may also be useful for inhibiting or alleviating Pneumocvstis carinii infections in immune compromised patients. The efficacy of the compounds of the present invention for therapeutic or anti-infective purposes may be demonstrated in studies on immunosuppressed rats. In a representative study, the effectiveness of Compound X _ a is determined. Sprague-Dawley rats (weighing approximately 250 grams) are immunosuppressed with dexamethasone in the drinking water (2.0 mg/L) and maintained on a low protein diet for seven seeks to induce the development of Pneumocvstis pneumonia from a latent infection. Before drug treatment, two rats are sacrificed to confirm the presence of Pneumocvstis carinii pneumonia (PCP). Five rats (weighing approximately 150 grams) are injected twice daily for four days subcutaneously (sc) with Compound X-a in 0.25 ml of vehicle (distilled water). A vehicle control is also carried out. All animals continue to receive dexamethasone in the drinking water and low protein diet during the treatment period. At the completion of the treatment, all animals are sacrificed, the lungs are removed and processed, and the extent of disease determined by microscopic analysis of stained slides. The outstanding properties are most effectively utilized when the compound is formulated into novel pharmaceutical compositions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier according to conventional pharmaceutical compounding techniques. The novel compositions contain at least a therapeutic antifungal or antipneumocystis amount of the active compound. Generally, the composition contains at least 1 percent by weight of Compound X or one of the components. Concentrate compositions suitable for dilutions prior to use may contain 90 percent or more by weight. The compositions include compositions suitable for oral, topical, parenteral (including intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, intramuscular, and intravenous), nasal, and suppository administration, or insufflation. The compositions may be prepacked by intimately mixing Compound X with the components suitable for the medium desired. Compositions formulated for oral administration may be a liquid composition or a solid composition. For liquid preparations, the therapeutic agent may be formulated with liquid carriers such as water, glycols, oils, alcohols, and the like, and for solid preparations such as capsules and tablets, with solid carriers such as starches, sugars, kaolin, ethyl cellulose, calcium and sodium carbonate, calcium phosphate, kaolin, talc, lactose, generally with a lubricant such as calcium stearate, together with binders, disintegrating agents and the like. Because of their ease in administration, tablets and capsules represent the most advantageous oral dosage form. It is especially advantageous to formulate the compositions in unit dosage form (as hereinafter defined) for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. Compositions in unit dosage form constitute an aspect of the present invention. Compositions may be formulated for injection and for injecton take such forms as suspensions, solutions or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles such as 0.85 percent sodium chloride or 5 percent dextrose in water and may contain formulating agents such as suspending, stabilizing and/or dispersing agents. Buffering agents as well as additives such as saline or glucose may be added to make the solutions isotonic. The compound also may be solubilized in alcohol/propylene glycol or polyethylene glycol for drip intravenous administration. These compositions also may be presented in unit dosage form in ampoules or in multidose containers, preferably with added preservative. Alternatively, the active ingredients may be in powder form for reconstituting with a suitable vehicle prior to administration. The term "unit dosage form" as used in the specification and claims refer to physically discrete units, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active ingredient calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the pharmaceutical carrier. Examples of such unit dosage forms are tablets, capsules, pills, powder packets, wafers, measured units in ampoules or in multidose containers and the like. A unit dosage of the present invention will generally contain from 100 to 200 milligrams of one of the compounds. When the compound is for antifungal use any method of administration may be employed. When the compound is to be employed for control of pneumocystis infections any method may be employed although it may be desirable to directly treat lung and bronchi. In such administration inhalation methods are employed. For administration by inhalation, the compounds of the present invention are conveniently delivered in the form of an aerosol spray presentation from pressurized packs or nebulisers. The preferred delivery system for inhalation is a metered dose inhalation (MDI) aerosol, which may be formulated as a suspension or solution of Compound X in suitable propellants, such as fluorocarbons or hydrocarbons. Although the compounds of the present invention may be employed as tablets, capsules, topical compositions, insufflation powders, suppositories and the like, the solubility of the compounds of the present invention in water and aqueous media render them adaptable for use in injectible formulations and also in liquid compositions suitable for aerosol sprays. The following examples illustrate the invention but are not to be construed as limiting.

Preparation of Starting Materials: The starting materials for the compounds are derivatives of natural products. The various nuclei are obtainable by cultivation of the appropriate organism, isolating the natural product which will have the appropriate nucleus with a different side chain, then deacylating the lipophilic group, recovering the deacylated cyclopeptide and acylating said cyclopeptide with the appropriate active ester R^COX to obtain compound E as hereinafter detailed. The natural product which differs in the side chain from the starting material are hereafter identified with a prime after the E identification. Thus, the natural product corresponding to starting material "E-l " is identified below as "E'-l " E'-l may be produced by cultivating Zalerion arboricola ATCC 20868 in a nutrient medium enriched in mannitol as the primary source of carbon as described in U.S. Patent No. 5,021,341, June 4, 1991. E'-2 may be produced by cultivating Zalerion arboricola ATCC 20868 in nutrient medium as described in U.S. 4,931,352, June 5, 1990 or in nutrient medium enriched in glycerol as described in U.S. 4,968,608, November 6, 1990. E'-2 nucleus with a different R may be produced by cultivating Acrophialophora limonispora in nutrient medium as described in U.S. 4,173,629. E'-3 and E'-7 may be produced by cultivating Crvptosporiopsis ATCC 20594 in nutrient medium as described by Pache et al in 13th ICC (1983), PS 4.8/3, Part 115, Abstract No. 10 and PCT WO 82/00587. E'-4, E'-5 and E'-6 may be produced by cultivating Zalerion arboricola ATCC 20868 in nutrient medium. When Rl is H, R2, R3 and R4 are OH, R5 is H or CH3 and R6 is CH3, the starting material may be made using another starting material, in which Rl , R2, R3 and R4 are OH, R5 is H and R6 is CH 3 (i.e., E'-') and reducing Rl by methods known to the skilled in the art. Conveniently this may be carried out by adding trifluoroacetic acid to the material and triacetoxyborohydride and mixing together to obtain a product and thereafter purifying the product by conventional methods such as by HPLC. Starting materials in which R* is a different group from that of the natural product may be obtained by deacylating the lipophilic group of the natural product by subjecting the natural product in a nutrient medium to a deacylating enzyme until substantial deacylation occurs, said enzyme having first been obtained by cultivating a microorganism of the family Pseudomondaceae or Actinoplanaceae. as also described in Experentia 34, 1670 (1978) or U.S. 4,293,482, and recovering the deacylated cyclopeptide and thereafter acylating the deacylated cyclopeptide by mixing together with an appropriate active ester R^COX to obtain Compound E with the desired acyl group using conventional procedures. Methods are also described in U.S. 4,287,120 and 4,293,489.
